Event description

Description

This course is designed to train users with a complete understanding of the main functions and key features within Microsoft PowerPoint. Delegates will be taken through a progressive step-by-step process to create a powerful and dynamic PowerPoint slideshow presentation. We will start by covering the process of setting up a presentation, input test, images, graphs and movies. We will also include the process of editing and the use of proofing tools for creating stunning graphics and visuals. We will work with both; importing graphics from the web and creating our own graphs. We will setup a slideshow and use a range of animations and transitions. We will also work on formatting print outs of slides and hand-outs.
